To change a string to a date format in Laravel, you can use the "Carbon" library which is already included in Laravel. You can use the "createFromFormat" method of Carbon to convert a string to a date format.
Here's an example:
use Carbon\Carbon;
$dateString = '2022-01-15';
$date = Carbon::createFromFormat('Y-m-d', $dateString);
echo $date->format('d/m/Y'); // output: 15/01/2022
In this example, the date string '2022-01-15' is being converted to a DateTime object using the createFromFormat method. The format of the input string is 'Y-m-d', which corresponds to the year, month, and day of the date.
After converting the string to a DateTime object, you can use the format method to format it to any desired date format.
